Community group to hold event at Converge Gallery

August 14, 2014

Converge Gallery and Williamsport Proud will host a night of celebration and discussion from 7:30 to 9 p.m. Friday at Converge Gallery, 140 W. Fourth St.

The event, which will serve as a fundraiser for Williamsport Proud, invites the community to discuss the "Gentrification" installation by Timothy Allen Miller and may feature guest speakers.

A voter registration table also will be available.

Visitors will have a chance to take home a piece of the artwork, as the 30 basketballs that make up the installation will be sold.

Money raised from the sale will go towards repaying Pete White of the Keystone State Basketball camp, who originally donated the basketballs to the gallery, and all remaining proceeds will go directly to the Williamsport Proud organization.
